Australia's Strongim Bisnis

Strongim Bisnis is an Australian Government initiative, managed by Adam Smith International. The program works with the private sector and Solomon Islands Government to make a strong, positive and lasting impact through business growth.

Tackling the nation's trade and investment challenges, we work to provide solutions for businesses and investors in the coconut, cocoa and tourism industries. We also focus on the business enabling environment, technology and innovation, and women's economic empowerment.

Strongim Bisnis uses a market systems development approach to address poverty through inclusive economic growth, the first program of its kind in Solomon Islands. This means we work with businesses and government to deal with barriers to growing businesses here to then build new businesses, diversify existing ones, or scale up operations so that more people benefit. Our program is driven by business spirit and acumen, and keen to support partners imagine, design and test new ways of doing business in Solomon Islands.
